What you can expect

Your tour begins with a warm welcome as your guide meets you at your hotel to start your journey through the vibrant streets of Saigon. You'll pass by lively areas filled with architecture dating back to the 1960s, offering a glimpse into the city’s storied past.

Stroll through the bustling Ban Co wet market, where you can chat with local vendors and sample a variety of snacks and drinks. Then, explore the hidden alleys behind Nguyen Thien Thuat Street, home to one of the city’s oldest apartment complexes and a window into daily local life.

Step inside the historic Secret Weapon House, once used by Saigon commandos to hide arms in preparation for the Tet Offensive in 1968 — a quiet house with an incredible storey to tell.

Take a break for coffee at a local shop, then continue your journey through Chinatown’s traditional medicine streets, where herbal remedies have been used since ancient times. You'll also visit Thien Hau Temple, a serene and spiritually significant place in the heart of the district.

Wrap up the experience with a delicious Vietnamese lunch at a local spot, a perfect way to complete your cultural exploration. By 1:30 pm, you'll be back at your hotel, bringing this enriching journey to a close.
